Prediction: Tyson Fury on Points

Result: Oleksandr Usyk by Points

So twice now I’ve picked Usyk to win but for Fury to get the robbery decision and twice I’ve been happily wrong. Usyk outboxed Fury in a fight full of competitive rounds that Usyk just racked up. Such an amazing fighter and the best fighter today I think we have to all agree. To move up from cleaning up cruiserweight and fight a heavyweight 55 pounds bigger with a 6 inch height advantage is crazy but Usyk beat him comfortably twice and cleaned up the division again. Brilliant and it’s a pleasure to watch him fight. I don’t know how many more fights he has before he calls it a day but every time out it’s something special.
